I am relaxing after a demanding, but in most ways relaxing day. Never mind a lot of detail – suffice it to say that I went to work, ran a few miles with friends, had pizza and beer afterwards, and I am now at home. I did a few things – hung up my wet running clothes to dry, petted the dog, got the coffee ready for tomorrow morning, and realized it was getting dark, actually that wonderful twilight time of evening that we have in the Northwest this time of year. I wanted to sit in my backyard, relax, reflect, and write something. I grabbed a beer, appropriately a Twilight Summer Ale, brewed in the Northwest of course.
It was just barely light enough to write, after 9:30 p.m., but a slight breeze was blowing, no rain, and it was starting to cool down (it was in the high 80’s today), a perfect evening. I grew up in Houston where it doesn’t cool down much at night in the summer. I’m tired, but this is a nice finish to my day. It’s only July 2, but people have already started with the fireworks – my dog hates fireworks. It’s too dark to write now. If the mood strikes you, please send me your “random reflection” about your day, I’d like to read it. Take care.
